THIS DEVICE DOES NOT VIBRATE! IT USES ELECTRICAL IMPULSES, NOT VIBRATION. For detailed operation of your Circulation Revitaliser please refer to the comprehensive instructions within this manual. To use Circulation Revitaliser immediately follow this 6 point quick start guide: 1. Remove Circulation Revitaliser and its accessories the packaging. 2. Insert batteries into the remote control (you don t have to use the remote control to use the device it s up to you). 3. Connect the DC adapter to a suitable mains outlet and plug the small DC socket into the device. 4. Turn on the power. 5. Remove your footwear and socks or stockings. PLACE YOUR BARE FEET ONTO THE FOOT PADS. YOUR RIGHT FOOT ON THE RIGHT FOOT PAD AND YOUR LEFT FOOT ON THE LEFT FOOT PAD. B0TH FEET NEED TO BE ON THE DEVICE FOR IT TO WORK. 6. Sit in comfortable chair. Place your bare feet on the left and right foot plates. Increase the intensity levels for the foot by pressing the SOLE^ or to press SOLE V to decrease the intensity. The intensity level ranges from 0-99, slowly increase the level until you begin to feel the micro-current stimulation. PLEASE NOTE, THE AIM IS NOT TO GET TO LEVEL 99 JUST FIND A SETTING THAT IS COMFORTABLE FOR YOU. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS. Q: I cannot feel the device vibrate? A: THIS DEVICE DOES NOT VIBRATE. Q: I cannot feel anything in my feet? A: May be your SOLE setting is too low. Increase this until you can feel it (it goes all the way up to 99). Q: Yesterday I used it on SOLE setting 45, today I cannot feel anything? A: Your body s response to the therapy will alter from day to day. Some days you may have to increase the SOLE setting to feel the benefits. Q: My legs ache after using the device. A: Either you had it on a SOLE setting that was too high for you (so reduce this setting next time you use it) or you have used it too many times within a few days. Just give your legs time to relax and then re-use the device. Q: I really don t feel anything when using the device; even on a high SOLE setting A: You may be dehydrated, the device uses EMS which sends tiny electrical impulses to the sole of your feet. You need to drink plenty of fluids to feel the maximum benefits. 2

PLEASE NOTE THAT IT MAY TAKE UP TO 4 WEEKS TO FEEL THE FULL BENEFITS OF THIS DEVICE. WE ADVISE USING THE DEVICE AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. IF YOU STOP USING THE DEVICE, YOU WILL STOP FEELING THE BENEFITS. REMEMBER TO DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS AND KEEP HYDRATED. IF YOU ARE HYDRATED THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE DEVICE WILL DECREASE. THE ELECTRO PADS ARE THERE TO TARGET HARD TO REACH AREAS. YOU CAN USE THE ELECTRO PADS AT THE SAME TIME AS USING THE FOOT PADS. THE DEVICE HAS 25 PROGRAMMES. This Electronic Nerve Stimulator is intended to be used as a massager to relieve (muscle) pain, increase blood circulation, relax stiff muscles, reduce swollen feet and ankles and fatigue. The massaging effect is achieved by electronic stimulation of the nerves through electrode pads placed on the skin. Various massage regions and treatment programmes can be selected. Suitable Users: Please read safety information before using the unit. (This unit should not be used by people prohibited from doing so in safety information ). Environment: This unit is intended for home use only. Effectiveness: Massager: relieve of (muscle) pain, stiffness and fatigue. Precautions for use: Please read Notes on safety before using the unit. Electronic Nerve Stimulation is a non-invasive, safe nerve stimulation intended to reduce pain. The Circulation Revitaliser uses proven neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy to send micro current pulses through the soles of your feet. This type of electrical stimulation is clinically proven to be safe and effective and can be carried out in the comfort of your own home. The Circulation Revitaliser improves muscles function by stimulating nerves increasing the flow of blood helping to reduce PAIN, SWELLING, TIRED AND ACHING LEGS 4

The customer or the user of the CIRCULATION REVITALISER should assure that it is used in such an environment. Immunity test Conducted RF IEC Radiated RF IEC IEC test level 3 V/ms 150 khz to 80 MHz 3 V/m 26 MHz to 2.5 GHz Compliance level Electromagnetic environment - guidance 3 V/ms 3 V/m Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the CIRCULATION REVITALISER, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter. Recommended separation distance d = 1,2 P d = 1,2 P 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 2,3 P 800 MHz to 2,5 GHz where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in metres (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range b. Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol: NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. a To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the CIRCULATION REVITALISER is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the CIRCULATION REVITALISER should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the CIRCULATION REVITALISER. b Over the frequency range 150 khz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m. 13

14 IB-CB100EU _Layout 1 24/10/ :15 Page Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the Circulation Revitaliser The CIRCULATION REVITALISER is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the CIRCULATION REVITALISER can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the CIRCULATION REVITALISER as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment. Rated maximum output power of transmitter W Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter m 150 khz to 80 MHz d = 1,2 P 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 1,2 P 800 MHz to 2,5 GHz d = 2,3 P 0, , For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer. NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. 14
